HC-B "Soundcheck For A Missing Movie" – Textura

Excerpt: “Think Giardini di Mirò’s the only ‘Italian instrumental rock’ outfit worth listening to? Not if HC-B has anything to say about it, as proven by the Sicilian quintet’s explosive, fifty-five-minute opus Soundcheck for a Missing Movie… What distinguishes HC-B’s sound is the energy and intensity which they bring to its material—even a somber, two-minute interlude such as ‘Dead Horse Walking’ feels on the verge of detonation, and much the same could be said for the dreamy ‘Slow Compensation’ and Red-like ‘Crystal Lane.’ Soundcheck for a Missing Movie may be a studio recording but it exudes the vitality of a well-oiled band attacking its material live. Tailor-made for fans of Giardini di Mirò, Explosions in the Sky, Do Make Say Think, Pacific UV, and bands of similar stripe.”
